How Percy's Calming Powers Work

Regulation

Like a hug, sensory elements such as touch, warmth, and weight can help calm and regulate

Mind/Body Connection

Gentle weight helps prepare the body for sleep by slowing down breathing and heart rate

Grounding

When distractions are high, setting Percy in your lap offers a gentle grounding element to focus on

How Percy Compares: The Difference is in the Details

Is the fur super-soft and cuddly?

Does it use double-seam stitching for durability?

Is it a child-safe design?

Are the weights made from natural clay beads?

Is it unscented?

Meet the Founder

Amy created For the Cubs after becoming a licensed foster parent. While learning about people needing an ideal 12 hugs a day, she designed Percy, the weighted plushie to mimic a hug. Percy was inspired by Amy’s late grandpa, who played a big role in her upbringing in the outback of Australia. Amy has poured her heart into thoughtfully curating safe, functional, and beautiful collections for eating, sleeping and soothing, with every order supporting kids in foster care through our nonprofit partner, One Simple Wish. She has cared for nine kids since becoming a foster parent. She lives in Austin, TX with her husband and two dogs.

The feel, looks & weight of Percy is perfect.
Although my son didn’t take to it quite as eagerly as I hoped, he does enjoy the weight & size of Percy.

So Cute

I fell in love with this little guy the minute I saw him. He is so cute and lovable.....when he wraps those chubby little arms around your neck all is at peace. The three little stands on the top if his head just make me giggle every time I see them. So worth the price. Those glasses he sports well what can I say they add to his charm. Once you pick him up he is hard to put back down.

Elizabeth, thank you so much for sharing this lovely feedback! We're so glad he's bringing lots of smiles and great snuggles to your day!

Better than I expected

I have wanted to order Percy for a while now. Well, I finally did and I am not disappointed. He is so cute, soft, and cuddly. I highly recommend him for multiple reasons. He is well put together and his face features are all embroidered.
I just love him! Well worth the wait and price.

We're so happy you love Percy and appreciate you so much for sharing this lovely feedback!

My Anxiety Buddy

The first Percy I purchased was for me. I get anxiety attacks, and stressed. I live with my 91 yr. old mother. I have been watching her health decline the last couple of years. Although I have siblings, I am the one who takes care of her
Percy has been a big help since he arrived. Thank you for creating him.
And thank you for all you do for Foster Children ❤️

Donna, thank you so much for your lovely review of Percy! We are truly so glad that he's providing you with comfort and support, especially at a time where you are playing such an important role in caring for your mom. Sending you lots of support and well wishes to you and your mom!
